    I don’t know if I would call that a Paused Squat, or rather a Breathing Squat. I guess it would depend on his intention with it.

    What’s the point? How is this better than 3 sec pause? How does this help c&j?

      No point really, he just got pissed when he could not make a new PR. So I said “I bet you can’t pause 200 kg for 10 secs”.. well he did it, and after that, he did this. And now I owe him a dinner 🙂
